Does not meet Timex standards

I returned this item. The tag said it was 'new' but it came with a refurbished warranty with instructions and the box was torn. It wasn't level, but fell over when you set the alarm or turned the radio on and off. I bought it because of the Timex name but sent it back. As always, the return to Revain is great and that's one of the reasons I keep coming back.

Pros
  • Good item
Cons
  • No

Garbage. Timex has stopped ticking

Timex used to be the #1 watch store. Never. This is Chinese junk. Bought. The speaker died after a month. Sent back and bought another one. About every week the clock goes off and keeps flashing. Must be reloaded. For many years, their slogan was "Timex. Continue licking and ticking "Unfortunately that is no longer the case. Back to Sony.

Pros
  • Very good value
Cons
  • Very expensive

I thought everything would be fine, but.

I needed an alarm clock with numbers that were easy to read. Every time I tried to set the alarm, the current time went back to midnight. every time Athena was also very annoying. Every time he was pushed, the radio seemed to have problems. So not worth the money in my opinion. I settled on an old clock radio we bought a few years ago that still works.

Pros
  • Handsfree
Cons
  • Miscellaneous Miscellaneous

Perhaps best in compact radios and stereos

I like the display and it's easy to see if the alarm is on. But the alarm volume is at the maximum, I tried to set it in the range from 1 to 20, and up to 20 every day. The buttons on the top are the same size, so it is difficult to understand anything in the dark. alarm button. There is no easy way to turn off the radio. In the morning I pressed the wrong button to turn off the alarm and turned on the radio. You have to press the snooze button until the display turns off. I would not buy…

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • There are new competitors

T231W2 and T231GY on clock radio

I think it's important to note that there is a significant difference between the T231W2 and the T231GY, not just the color (white/green, grey/red). White-Green has 2 additional buttons on the top of the device. These 2 buttons are used to increase/decrease the volume and make it easier to control/adjust the device. So if you prefer easy customization over color I would prefer a white/green block over a grey/red one. A 2-inch speaker is sufficient, although I would have preferred a slightly…

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Functionality

The Timex watch was sold new but refurbished and even came with a 30 day warranty card stating it was refurbished. The watch had a few scratches and scuffs. Also, I ordered a red display but they sent me a green display. We liked the green display better. It was part of several other Mother's Day gifts and I was embarrassed that it had been refurbished. It seems to be working, but let's see if it shows the correct time. The watch seems to work but consider buying from another seller who will…

Pros
  • cool item
Cons
